echo $strBody;
$to= $_SESSION['email'];
$from = "**********";
$subject = "Testing mail";
$message = "Hello! This is a simple email message.";
echo mail($to,$subject,$strBody,$from);

if i use $strBody i get error...if i use $message the code works fine. I have display $strBody and it shows up fine but when i try to use it in mail() i am getting error.

Can anyone please help.

回答1:

According to the PHP Manual for mail(), the lines in the message must be 70 chars long max. and should be separated with \n (LF). While I've never encountered a problem caused by this, you can give it a try.

Oh, I generally write down message HTML in a single string like:

$message = '
    <div>
        <span>...
        ...etc...
        ';

So it's getting newlines automatically. You can simply trim $strBody=$strBody." parts and concatenate the message into a single multiline string.

If you can't get it working, you can try ready-made classes like Zend Mail.

$to= $_SESSION['email']; Are you sure that your session contains correct e-mail address? Try to debug it. Maybe you forgot session_start before any output?
